It's the end of summer, but there is still some time to get some more beach in. If you're anything like me, you spent all summer trying to find the perfect swimsuit and still haven't the right one. If the malls and shore-side shops are doing nothing for you, design your board shorts on Shortomatic. You can print your vacation photo, favorite painting, or personal artwork on your trunks and and swim in it. Or you can buy someone else's designs. The choice is yours. If you prefer premade graphic swimwear, We Are Handsome and Black Milk are also offering .

Those sexy a-morir lace sunglasses we've seen on Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga are now being sold on Nasty Gal for only $28. With affordable options available, it looks like the printed sunglasses trend originally inspired by Chanel is finally taking off!

If Copenhagen Fashion Week is a forecast upcoming styles, then we are all doomed. 2012 will arrive Spring 2011. Scandinavia's Fashion Armageddon consisted of pirates by Nom de Plume, hobos by Simon Rasmussen and many tragic failures. But those unfortunate designs are the least of my worries. Overall, I am disappointed because of a lack of innovation and quality expected from the catwalk. However, snobbery aside, there is a lot of raw talent coming out of Scandinavia. Copenhagen has the potential to become a fashion capital. I was impressed of the unity of the Copenhagen collections-- an overwhelmingly amount of grunge, quirky patterns, and medieval influences. Here a few gcollections that deserve to be highlighted.

Still pondering the question of our times: Is punk dead? Well rest assured, your suspicions have been verified because the original rebels themselves have dived into the depths of commercialism. The Sex Pistols have released a fragrance, smelling not of Johnny Rotten, but of a "fresh, restless bite of lemon, sharpened and intensified by a defiant black pepper...". Yummy. Reminds me of that delicious lemon-pepper grilled chicken sandwich from Fudddruckers... Or lemon Lysol... anything but punk.

A couple hours ago M.I.A. debuted the video for XXXO. She looks absolutely stunning as usual. Playing Pop Princess for this song, she makes sure sure you get understand "You want me be somebody who I'm really not."

!!GOLDBOMBER!!GOLDBOMBER!!GOLDBOMBER!!

I have this fatal illness that causes me to become fixated with almost anything M.I.A. wears. I am currently obsessed with the gold bomber at about 2:02. I want to wear my gold bomber with my black minidress or black sequined leggings, neither of which I own. Unfortunately, the best I could find was an American Apparel version. Yes, it's kinda cute, and the price isn't bad, but I refuse to buy from that store.
